No he didn't it was the guy Nintendo put in charge of the paper Mario series at the time Who wanted to apeal to 10 year olds The only thing Miyamoto wanted was the original Mario races only
Diego. He thinks that all women are still being "oppressed", "blamed" by men in 2018. For gods sake, women are not blamed almost ever, infact men and women are blamed equally. And he's assuming Banano of being sexist, being a "blamer" just because he pointed out one of the horrible mistakes that woman made? Either Diego is deaf, or he is gay af.
Shini I agree with you, and honestly, the woman made a lot of mistakes in there, some felt like she really wasn't even trying, and Diego got offended for no real reason other than the truth being spoken. And feminists really do need to die.
Wii Music was one of my favorite games as a kid, and I had a lot of fun with it. Now that I'm 16, I don't play it nearly as much, but it was so much fun just playing around with it and doing stuff on it as a kid. That said, that E3 presentation...scarred for life.
AdrianDX Exactly, it was never on-stage, if only, a preproduced streamed E3 moment. The game is bad, but I'm happy they didn't torture some live audience with that on stage.
The new controller was a big Switch at the time. Though, at that time, nobody knew that a Switch like that could even exist. Now, we're more used to that Switch then we would have been before if they made such a Switch much earlier. That's why the Wii U Gamepad had to be such a Switch, to prepare for better things later. It really makes a Switch of your prespective.
In the defence of Cammie... I believe that this was quite soon after Reggie started appearing all over the place. And I think many of us were like "Reggie who?" at first.
What made it cringy was, first of all, this is a corporation. They are a corporation that makes fun video games, yes, but they are still a corporation, and there is nothing more corporate than a press conference. Cringe itself is also another form of empathy. They are embarrassing themselves, and you feel their embarrassment. Imagine these people looking into the eyes of the people in the DEATHLY SILENT crowd while they are on stage. Now to get into the meat of it. First of all, we get Miyamoto coming on stage to demonstrate playing an instrument with a wiimote. He tries to play an F-Zero song, and clearly butchers it. It sounds amateurish, which is not a good look for a music game. Then, they get this goofy ass guy playing drums. At first, he does a good job of showcasing that you can actually sound like you are playing drums. Then, he starts flailing randomly and it just sounds like a bunch of noise. While he is doing that, they cut to him making this face that looks like he is high with his hair flopping about while he is flailing his arms with a cord between them shaking about. It looks goofy as shit and, again, THIS IS ON A CORPORATE PRESS CONFERENCE. Finally, the coup de grace. A bunch of corporate executives come on stage and start playing the Mario theme.... and absolutely butcher it while they have the most fake ass expressions and movements possible. They don't look like they are having fun, they look like they are trying to look like they are having fun. All while a goofy ass sounding version of the mario theme plays. Seriously, just look at their expressions while listening to that music, and REMEMBER, THIS IS A CORPORATE PRESS CONFERENCE. THIS IS FOR THE PRESS AND THEIR INVESTORS TO SEE. Sorry for the long post, I just wanted to be absolutely clear, THIS IS HIGH LEVEL CRINGE.
Ah, GameCube E3, back when Reggie was savage and ready to prove that Nintendo could outperform the other systems. Not sure what to expect today when all we've been promised is a Nintendo Direct + Treehouse. Has Reggie gone soft?
I'm ok with these digital events Nintendo has been doing lately, but these clips are making me miss Nintendo E3 conferences. Watching trailers while hearing the audience...Remember Donkey Kong Country Returns's reveal? lol
What really drove me crazy about the Wii Music fail is that it was the game Nintendo chose to close out the show with that year. They actually thought that game was worthy of being their big finale!
Miyamoto doesn’t even look happy when playing Wii Music, he’s probably thinking “Just make it stop!!!” You want to know when a game is going to be good? When Miyamoto seems excited and committed to it, best example, Mario+Rabbits, enough said!!!
I like my Nintendo but the Wii with it's damn Wiimote BS pissed me off so much during the entire life cycle of the Wii. I know the Wii reveal is not an embarrassing moment but I had to put this here. I know the tech is more or less succeeded by the Joy-Cons now but there was this obnoxious hype surrounding the Wiimote when it came out which made it more annoying than it already was.
As a musician myself, when I saw the drummer on stage my first thought was, "Hey, what's wrong with it? That actually looks kind of cool. Music apps like those are very popular today for cell phones and IPads". Then I heard the entire "band" fucking up Mario's Theme and I said "Oh. God. Nevermind".
They actually did show off a game for the vitality sensor. I remember, you were this thing, going through a tunnel, and if your heart beated faster, you moved up, and if it was slower, you moved down. And they brought up the fact that they can try to trick your heart into beating faster by making intense music and different colors on the walls to make you nervous and all that. But I mean, let's be real, it wouldn't have worked well at all.
Regarding #3, it was always clear to me that the Wii U was a new system. The promo video showed the new system next to the TV. The promo emphasized the control, but Nintendo has always had innovative controls, so that wasn't a surprise. When I read articles later by confused writers who didn't know if this was just an add-on or a new system, I just shook my head. Again, the promo video showed the new system next to the TV. The only mistake was calling it the Wii U, which was a very unimaginative name.
The vitality sensor could have been pretty sick, The concept of, the came reacts to you pulse ( therefore stress etc. ) and adjusts the difficulty/tension/whatever seems still a sick concept... i wonder how long it will be before, in the whole upcomig VR bs, this concept will be reimagined to give a better experience in some VR Resident Evil.
Am I the only one who's just noticed the little musical notes on that wii music clip are the same musical notes that bounce around on Mario Kart 8s musical track.
I'm getting PTSD watching this
TheLonelyGoomba same... also sup goomba
at least they are not watching the super mario bros movie
TheLonelyGoomba me too
*VIETNAM FLASHBACKS*
oh god not again...!
The goomba still waddles
That drummer's face just kills me every time! Look at him!
*[intensity intensifies]*
TarminatorSalvation my nigga on the drums looks like an Indian tech support Sylvester Stallone with a Mohawk.
TarminatorSalvation Does anyone even know the guy's name?
TarminatorSalvation He smoke a huge blunt.
In his solo: "OMG why isn't this responding... SMILE!", in the group play: "Haha, we're making fools of us, lets go with it." xD
I felt so bad for Miyamoto when the motion controls messed up on stage...
Nintenjoe it happened on the iPhone x presentation... dont worry
Nintenjoe FUCK MIYAMOTO THAT ASSHOLE RUINED MY FAVORITE GAME PAPER MARIO!!!!!!!
No he didn't it was the guy Nintendo put in charge of the paper Mario series at the time
Who wanted to apeal to 10 year olds
The only thing Miyamoto wanted was the original Mario races only
Grimcreaper0514 You mean Mario Bros. is a game for kids? Wow. Whoda thunk it? I mean the series is so hardcore and gritty.
paper mario wasnt originaly the most basic only for kids experience dickhead
I still can't figure out who was faking it in when they played the SMB theme on Wii Music. How can 5 players play on a 4 player game? 👀
Avatard Bezza Most likely the drummer, there was no drum sound
holy shit i just realized that
i'm retarded
The power of cringe
What's worse, there were 6 people on screen at once.
Christ, I completely forgot that was a four-player game.
"Do you agree with this list" oh man ..for a second i though i was watching a WatchMojo video :P
I mean the Wii music wouldn't have been that bad if it wasn't for the woman playing the marimba she fucked it up lol
Banano Jugueton Of course always blaming women 🤦🏼♂️ How did she fucked up and the others didn’t?
Diego The marimba is awful for fucks sake
Shini Who's that directed to?
Diego. He thinks that all women are still being "oppressed", "blamed" by men in 2018. For gods sake, women are not blamed almost ever, infact men and women are blamed equally. And he's assuming Banano of being sexist, being a "blamer" just because he pointed out one of the horrible mistakes that woman made? Either Diego is deaf, or he is gay af.
Shini I agree with you, and honestly, the woman made a lot of mistakes in there, some felt like she really wasn't even trying, and Diego got offended for no real reason other than the truth being spoken. And feminists really do need to die.
for anyone at the live Wii music presentation, I'm sorry for your loss. loss of sanity
Wii Music was one of my favorite games as a kid, and I had a lot of fun with it. Now that I'm 16, I don't play it nearly as much, but it was so much fun just playing around with it and doing stuff on it as a kid.
That said, that E3 presentation...scarred for life.
At least it looks like they were having fun playing Wii Music...
OwO Botch those were total fake expressions lol
Didn't one of them immediately complain after she left the stage?
Just starting to watch the video; if Amiibo Festival isn't on the list I'm rioting.
EDIT: *riots*
Oof
Aaron Cutherbertson Aniimal Crossing Amiibo Festival was a great game! THE ANIMAL CROSSING SERIES IS ALLOWED A F*CKING SPIN-OFF FOR F*CK SAKE!!!
Cutie & Friends Adventures The problem is that game is unplayable when you dont have any Animal Crossing amiibo's.
Serge - Which is why it comes with two of them.
Aaron Cuthrrbertson - Amiibo Festival had an E3 presentation? Can't remember that O_o
AdrianDX Exactly, it was never on-stage, if only, a preproduced streamed E3 moment. The game is bad, but I'm happy they didn't torture some live audience with that on stage.
The last one is not an embarrassment. It is the single greatest reveal at e3 ever since the first e3
Man that Wii music demonstration always makes me feel so awkward. So bad.
Whats worse, Egypt playing the Russian national anthem, or the Wii Music version of The mario bros theme NES?
wii music is worse
Federation force reveal
It’s the dummy on the Marimba who had no sense of rhythm...
3:33 We've known it all along. It was right under our noses.
lmao
~Switch~ from TV to the New Controller
lmaooooo wow
They wanted to make a Switch so bad. They just couldn't admit that they weren't ready yet.
Daniel Evans wtf does that even mean? 😂😂
The new controller was a big Switch at the time. Though, at that time, nobody knew that a Switch like that could even exist. Now, we're more used to that Switch then we would have been before if they made such a Switch much earlier. That's why the Wii U Gamepad had to be such a Switch, to prepare for better things later. It really makes a Switch of your prespective.
Now this year we need Switch Music
day one buy
SatsumaComic Or Wii Music Deluxe for Wii U?
Either way
You're right! Complete day one buy
Switch Music with 2 additional DLC Packs and 6 corrisponding Amiibo
(announced at E3 instead of Metroid Prime 4)
Day 1 buy
The only real use I can think of for the Wii vitality sensor is for a horror game mechanic.
Time For Switch Music
BigMudkipFan that would SWITCH thing up....
No.
It's called Labo.
In the defence of Cammie...
I believe that this was quite soon after Reggie started appearing all over the place. And I think many of us were like "Reggie who?" at first.
Midna78 My body is ready
I don't know what was wrong with the Wii Music one it was just a bunch of people getting wild and having fun.
Same I enjoyed it and it made me want to play it. I don't remember that being a mode on it.
I mean did ya see the way they were shaking the wii motes around?
Nano64 It made Nintendo look too goofy.
What made it cringy was, first of all, this is a corporation. They are a corporation that makes fun video games, yes, but they are still a corporation, and there is nothing more corporate than a press conference. Cringe itself is also another form of empathy.

Nano64 calm down fanboy, people are allowed to not like something...shhh
Let's all agree that their GameCube E3 was the best.
Don't remember it.
I do recall that final Space World when the GC was announced though. THAT was glorious!
It was great, don't get me wrong, but the DS one was even better imo.
Mojtaba Mortada I see you everywhere. Mety, GirKart46, here. Coincidences! I think so!
Diapolo10 Touching is good....
Ah, GameCube E3, back when Reggie was savage and ready to prove that Nintendo could outperform the other systems. Not sure what to expect today when all we've been promised is a Nintendo Direct + Treehouse. Has Reggie gone soft?
Love the way you present the video. Fluid talking, good intonation, generally good pace of the video. Things that many people fail at.
At the time I adored Wii Music. One night I played it all night long with my friends. If I think about it right now...
That number 1 has successfully made me regret watching late at night
I died on the Wii Music part.
What a lovely hair cut you have Alex. It's lovely
But its also lovely
SatsumaComic you forgot to mention that it is lovely
Kinda like these peeeeeple.
but was it lovely?
Bisalwayswright He just needs to shave, loose a few pounds and he’ll go from lovely to hottie.
this is why Nintendo doesn't do on stage press conferences anymore
The direct-style presentations are so much better.
I'm ok with these digital events Nintendo has been doing lately, but these clips are making me miss Nintendo E3 conferences. Watching trailers while hearing the audience...Remember Donkey Kong Country Returns's reveal? lol
Federation Force and Amiibo Festival were far more embarrassing then "Wii Music".
What really drove me crazy about the Wii Music fail is that it was the game Nintendo chose to close out the show with that year. They actually thought that game was worthy of being their big finale!
I thought that Wii Music showcase was actually kind of cool.. sure they didn't play the song perfectly but it was still alright
It’s been years and I still don’t understand why people think it’s bad
Miyamoto doesn’t even look happy when playing Wii Music, he’s probably thinking “Just make it stop!!!”
You want to know when a game is going to be good? When Miyamoto seems excited and committed to it, best example, Mario+Rabbits, enough said!!!
The moments on this list are why Nintendo will never ever do a live conference at E3 again.
Lovely! The most awkward Nintendo moments was uploaded on my birthday. Thanks for the birthday treat Nintendo Life!
Looking back now I'm cringing at these E3 moments but back in the day I just remember being hyped for new games and consoles.
Nintendo E3 2018:
Wii Music for the Nintendo Switch
Sander Evers cancel all games and make switch music
i didn't think the wii music presentation was that bad, but that last part i was like.....
*WUT.*
I feel the skyward sword was worse than the Wii music because you kinda expect the Wii music to be silly.
I'm always coming back to this and skipping to 7:08 lol gets me every time
7:21 when you don't know what you're doing
will you do a video of the best moments of Nintendo e3 history?
To be fair, E3 2015 was an embarrassment in general for Nintendo.
Matthew The Autism Guy at least they redeemed themselves with E3 2016 and I am looking forward to this years
You derped hard, son.
The Humble Narcissist Why yes I am haha. I didn't think anyone would notice.
Nintendo *easily* won E3 2017
Waffless Nintendo really have got their shit together lately
...And we still wonder why Nintendo won't go on stage anymore on E3
How about ALL of E3 2015?
Midna78 All of the games shown got mediocre to bad reception. And the Wii U was taken off life support. It was such a waste of everyone's time.
3:53 what happened to add-ons for example.The Sega Genesis had the 32X the CD if I'm not mistaken
I like my Nintendo but the Wii with it's damn Wiimote BS pissed me off so much during the entire life cycle of the Wii. I know the Wii reveal is not an embarrassing moment but I had to put this here. I know the tech is more or less succeeded by the Joy-Cons now but there was this obnoxious hype surrounding the Wiimote when it came out which made it more annoying than it already was.
I don't see what's wrong with Wii Music presentation
I don't know what that Wii Music is, but motion controlled virtual drums?! Sign me up!
Wii Music: One of my least favorite games of all time
My phone cut off during the Wii Music and I think it was trying to save me.
Wii music is the best family game ever
The drum guy was definitely high
I'm still not understanding the issues with that last one, what's the issue with the Wii Music demonstration?
Teenkitsune 100% cringe
niceb8m8
It's god awful. E3 2008 was bad for Nintendo in general
Get that drummer medical attention stat... he is having a siezure
I felt embarrassed just to watch that Wii music thing.... that was brutal
"Switch" from TV to the new controller.
Fucking prank nintendo.
I love Cammy! She's the best former Shadaloo doll I know
As a musician myself, when I saw the drummer on stage my first thought was, "Hey, what's wrong with it? That actually looks kind of cool. Music apps like those are very popular today for cell phones and IPads". Then I heard the entire "band" fucking up Mario's Theme and I said "Oh. God. Nevermind".
I'm shocked nothing from 2015 was on here like AC Amiibo festival, but this seems to be focused on the presentations anyway
Those didn't seem that embarrassing. I actually liked the Wii Music show.
Arca Palace You poor poor soul...
What...
Yeah sure but they screwed up the song
The cringe tho!
How could you?
The music thing wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't the girl playing the xylophone.
Wii, Wii, Wii U, Wii, Wii. Says it all really.
Xbox One,Xbox One S,Xbox One X.
Haywired Wii, Wii mini, wii u
PS5
What do you mean Wii music was my favorite Nintendo E3 moment
To laugh at
Well now we know why they create Nintendo Direct
They actually did show off a game for the vitality sensor. I remember, you were this thing, going through a tunnel, and if your heart beated faster, you moved up, and if it was slower, you moved down. And they brought up the fact that they can try to trick your heart into beating faster by making intense music and different colors on the walls to make you nervous and all that. But I mean, let's be real, it wouldn't have worked well at all.
00:00 When you hear that "click"
These are peanuts next to Sony's Giant Crab Monster/"Riiiiiiidge Racerrrrrr" debacle and Konami's 2010 travesty.
The title is slightly misleading, but I surely do agree on the last one! That will never get out of my head, even though I want it to
The whole Nintendo E3 2015 conference was an embarrassing moment.
The Wii Music part was a nightmare to watch!
Lmao! The dude playing the drums looked like he was high as a kite.
OMG! That last one wasn't just embarrassing, it was painful!
They need a “Switch Music”
Oh my god, Cammy Dunaway's neck posture is seriously bothering me. Ahhhh
Regarding #3, it was always clear to me that the Wii U was a new system. The promo video showed the new system next to the TV. The promo emphasized the control, but Nintendo has always had innovative controls, so that wasn't a surprise. When I read articles later by confused writers who didn't know if this was just an add-on or a new system, I just shook my head. Again, the promo video showed the new system next to the TV. The only mistake was calling it the Wii U, which was a very unimaginative name.
They look like they are having so much fun.
That wii music segment was a cringe-pie fresh out the oven 😖
Why didn't you put in the entire E3 of 2015
E3 2008 was the ONE year I decided to introduce my friend to E3. Don't think he's ever watched one since then, and I can't blame him. lol
Still better than Sony this year
I remember that Wii Music drummer moment like it was yesterday. There were animated gifs of that embarrassment out there within minutes.
The vitality sensor could have been pretty sick, The concept of, the came reacts to you pulse ( therefore stress etc. ) and adjusts the difficulty/tension/whatever seems still a sick concept... i wonder how long it will be before, in the whole upcomig VR bs, this concept will be reimagined to give a better experience in some VR Resident Evil.
First Position is ever a best Nintendo meme
I have to agree that the Wii music presentation was really bad, but I think the game itself is fun.
The whole 2007 presentation was terrible
Dink Me I think you mean 2008
"Hey kids want to come over and play with my wii wii?"
I love how in the SMB theme demonstration, Miyamoto is like "How have I fallen this hard?"
they cleaned their act this year.
It's pretty embarrassing that the vitality sensor failed at doing the 1 thing it could
Miyamoto playing skyward sword was definitely the most painful to watch
not gonna mention the nintendo switch conference translator?
Karltroid wasn’t e3
The most embarrassing moment from E3 is when Nintendo announced Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival.
I'd play Wii music. It kinda seems fun
Am I the only one who's just noticed the little musical notes on that wii music clip are the same musical notes that bounce around on Mario Kart 8s musical track.
I love the Robot Chicken E3 most.
I had successfully repressed all of the Wii music demonstrations, and now I've had to relive it. MAKE IT STAAAHHHP
anyone know where i can get that sick artwork hanging up in the background?
Honestly the Wii Music thing wouldn't have been half as bad as it was were it for the lady playing marimba
Uuhhh the cringe, I don't think I can handle it When they played wii music ._.
I'm honestly surprised their E3 2015 direct didn't make the list.
OKAY OH MY GOD THE WII MUSIC THING WAS WAAAAAAAAAY WORSE THEN I REMEMBER OH MY GOD!!!!! at least there having fun?
